java - 将嵌套的 Pojo 对象作为单独的对象存储在数据库中

标签 java jackson

我使用 jackson 将 json 字符串映射到我的 HTModel 类,它基本上是一个简单的 Pojo。

class HTModel{}

public class Post extends HTModel {
    public String id;
    public String content;
    public String author;
}

即使类嵌套在一起也能很好地工作。

public class Venue extends HTModel {
    public ArrayList<Post> posts;
}

我设置了一个简单的 SqlLite 模式来根据模型的类型和 ID 缓存和索引这些模型。

我的问题是,如果模型包含其他模型的字段,我不想将 field 模型作为一个整体存储在数据库中。 ArrayList Venue.posts 中的每个帖子都应该单独保存。

最好的方法是什么?

最佳答案

在使用 JSON 创建自己的数据库 -> POJO 实现时,我遇到了类似的问题。这就是我解决问题的方法,对我来说效果很好。

让我们以您的 Post 对象为例。它需要很容易地表示为 JSON 对象并从 JSON 字符串创建。此外,它需要能够保存到数据库中。我已经根据这两个条件分解了我使用的类的继承关系:

Post
  -> DatabaseObject
    -> JsonObject
      -> LinkedHashMap

从最基本的表示开始,一个JsonObject,它是一个扩展的LinkedHashMapMaps 由于其键值映射而非常适合表示 JSON 对象。这是 JsonObject 类:

import java.util.Iterator;
import java.util.LinkedHashMap;
import java.util.Map;

/**
 * A <code>JsonObject</code> represents a JSON object, which begins and ends 
 * with curly braces '{' '}' and contains key-value pairs separated by a 
 * colon ':'.
 * <p>
 * In implementation, this is simply an extended <code>LinkedHashMap</code> to 
 * represent key-value pairs and to preserve insert order (which may be 
 * required by some JSON implementations, though is not a standard).
 * <p>
 * Additionally, calling <code>toString()</code> on the <code>JsonObject</code> 
 * will return a properly formatted <code>String</code> which can be posted as 
 * a value JSON HTTP request or response.
 * @author Andrew
 * @param <V> the value class to use. Note that all keys for a 
 *          <code>JsonObject</code> are <code>Strings</code>
 */
public class JsonObject<V> extends LinkedHashMap<String, V> {

    /**
     * Creates a new empty <code>JsonObject</code>.
     */
    public JsonObject() {

    }
    /**
     * Creates a new <code>JsonObject</code> from the given HTTP response 
     * <code>String</code>.
     * @param source HTTP response JSON object
     * @throws IllegalArgumentException if the given <code>String</code> is not 
     *          a JSON object, or if it is improperly formatted
     * @see JsonParser#getJsonObject(java.lang.String) 
     */
    public JsonObject(String source) throws IllegalArgumentException {
        this(JsonParser.getJsonObject(source));
    }
    /**
     * Creates a new <code>JsonObject</code> from the given <code>Map</code>.
     * @param map a <code>Map</code> of key-value pairs to create the 
     *          <code>JsonObject</code> from
     */
    public JsonObject(Map<? extends String, ? extends V> map) {
        putAll(map);
    }

    /**
     * Returns a JSON formatted <code>String</code> that properly represents 
     * this JSON object.
     * <p>
     * This <code>String</code> may be used in an HTTP request or response.
     * @return JSON formatted JSON object <code>String</code>
     */
    @Override
    public String toString() {
        StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder("{");

        Iterator<Map.Entry<String, V>> iter = entrySet().iterator();
        while (iter.hasNext()) {
            Map.Entry<String, V> entry = iter.next();
            sb.append(JsonParser.toJson(entry.getKey()));
            sb.append(':');

            V value = entry.getValue();
            sb.append(JsonParser.toJson(value));
            if (iter.hasNext()) {
                sb.append(',');
            }

        }
        sb.append("}");        
        return sb.toString();
    }
}

很简单,它只是一个代表JSON对象的LinkedHashMap,可以通过调用toString()快速将其转为JSON字符串,以及创建使用我创建的 JsonParser 类从 JSON 字符串中提取。

如果您已经在使用像 Jackson 这样的 JSON 解析器,您可能需要重新做一些事情才能使用该 API。

接下来是 Post 的内容,DatabaseObject 赋予 Post 与数据库通信的功能。在我的实现中,Database 对象只是一个抽象类。我指定 Database 如何将 DatabaseObjects 保存到别处,无论是通过 JDBC 还是 JSON over HTTP。

请记住,我们使用 Map 来表示我们的对象。对于您的帖子,这意味着您拥有三个“属性”(我在文档中称其为关键值):ID、内容和作者。

这是 DatabaseObject(精简后)的样子。请注意 save() 方法,我将在此处回答您的问题。

import java.text.ParseException;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Iterator;
import java.util.LinkedHashMap;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Map;
import java.util.Set;

/**
 * The <code>DatabaseObject</code> represents a single row of data from a 
 * specific table within a database.
 * <p>
 * The object should implement getters and setters for each column, and is 
 * responsible for registering the correct table name and column names, as 
 * well as default values for those columns, in case a default value is 
 * not supported by the database table.
 * <p>
 * The <code>DatabaseObject</code> works with key-value pairs as an 
 * extended <code>LinkedHashMap</code>. It defines one property, 
 * <code>DatabaseObject.ROW_ID</code> which represents the unique 
 * identifier column for a table row. This column should always be an 
 * integer value. (Future implementations may allow for long values, but 
 * <code>Integer.MAX_VALUE</code> is well suited for most databases as a maximum 
 * row count per table).
 * <p>
 * The key and value pairs should be accessed by implementing getter and 
 * setter methods, not by the get and put methods provided by the 
 * <code>LinkedHashMap</code>. This is to ensure proper <code>Class</code> 
 * type casting for each value.
 * <p>
 * A <code>DatabaseObject</code> itself is also an extension of a 
 * <code>JsonObject</code>, and <code>toString()</code> may be called on 
 * it to provide a JSON notated <code>DatabaseObject</code>.
 * <p>
 * When using JSON however, keep in mind that the keys may not correspond 
 * exactly with the table column names, even though that is the recommendation. 
 * The <code>DatabaseObject</code> should be converted back into its 
 * implementing object form and saved when using web services.
 * <p>
 * The parameter <code>T</code> should be set to the class of the implementing 
 * <code>DatabaseObject</code>. This will allow proper class casting when 
 * returning instances of the implementation, such as in the <code>load()</code> 
 * methods.
 * @param <T> the type of <code>DatabaseObject</code>

        //For me, I could simply call database.update(sql), and
        //the abstracted Database object would determine how to 
        //send that information via HTTP as a JSON object

        //Of course, your save() method would vary greatly, but this is just a quick

    public abstract String getTableName();
}

对于 TL;DR 版本:

Post 是一个 DatabaseObject

DatabaseObject 是一个JsonObject,它是一个LinkedHashMap

LinkedHashMap 设定了存储键值对的标准。键 = 列名,值 = 列值。

JsonObject 什么都不做,只是提供了一种将 LinkedHashMap 打印为 JSON 字符串的方法。

DatabaseObject 指定有关如何保存到数据库的逻辑,包括在值是另一个 DatabaseObject 的情况下,或者如果值包含 DatabaseObject ,例如集合。

^ -- 这意味着您只需编写一次“保存”逻辑。当您调用 Post.save() 时,它会保存帖子。当您调用 Venue.save() 时,它会保存地点列(如果有的话),以及 ArrayList 中的每个单独的 Post

为了额外的乐趣,下面是您的 PostVenue 对象的样子:

public class Post extends DatabaseObject<Post> {

    //The column names
    public final static String POST_ID = "PostID";
    public final static String CONTENT = "Content";
    public final static String AUTHOR = "Author";

    public Post() {
        //Define default values
    }

    public int getPostId() {
        return (Integer)get(POST_ID);
    }
    public void setPostId(int id) {
        put(POST_ID, id);
    }
    public String getContent() {
        return (String)get(CONTENT);
    }
    public void setContent(String content) {
        put(CONTENT, content);
    }
    public String getAuthor() {
        return (String)getAuthor();
    }
    public void setAuthor(String author) {
        put(AUTHOR, author);
    }

    @Override
    public String getTableName() {
        return "myschema.posts";
    }

}

请注意,我们不再声明类变量,只声明存储值的列名。我们在 getter/setter 方法中定义变量的类。

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;

public class Venue extends DatabaseObject<Venue> {

    //This is just a key property, not a column
    public final static String POSTS = "Posts";

    public Venue() {
        setPosts(new ArrayList());
    }

    public List<Post> getPosts() {
        return (List<Post>)get(POSTS);
    }
    public void setPosts(List<Post> posts) {
        put(POSTS, posts);
    }
    public void addPost(Post post) {
        getPosts().add(post);
    }

    @Override
    public String getTableName() {
        //Venue doesn't have a table name, it's just a container
        //In your DatabaseObject.save() method, you can specify logic to 
        //account for this condition
        return "";
    }

}

额外的终极 TL;DR 版本:

使用 Map 来存储您的变量,而不是在您的类中定义它们。

创建一个 save() 方法逻辑,迭代 Map 值并将列值对保存到数据库,同时考虑集合或可保存的值数据库对象

现在您所要做的就是调用 Venue.save(),您所有的 Post 对象也将被适本地保存。
